Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got...

About Me


I'm Nate. I like peanut butter, cheese, horseradish, and ice cream. Not necessarily all at the same time. I love snow and I hate hot weather. I'm a music lover and don't care much for tv or movies, though I have watched CSI because I've had friends tell me that I'm just like Grissom. I don't see the similarity. I like video games, and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas has kept me busy for quite some time, though my Nintendo DS had occupied more of my time than the PS2 lately. I like sleeping, though I do most of that in the daytime due to working the late shift at Papa John's. I should start blogging the amusing scenarios I find myself in when I'm in a town full of drunks at 3am and I have pizza. I enjoy my job more than a lot of people do, but I'm hoping that some time this year I can land the perfect engineering job that has been so elusive. I try to get out and party one night a week. I like expensive beer and Jagermeister, and Monkeyboy pitchers at the Saloon. I am a very easy going person, maybe too much, but I try to enjoy every moment, every nap, and every sandwich.

My Interests

sleeping, drinking, eating, cooking, playing guitar, playing bass, playing piano, playing the skin flute, off roading, wasting time on the internet

I'd like to meet:

friends old and new, those i have lost touch with, pretty much anyone i know or used to know who isn't lame, and your mom unless we've already met.

Music:

i like most everything, but i'm a headbanger at heart. currently listening to old 97s and opeth a lot. and there's always some neil young and bob dylan in my cd changer. other favorites include the grateful dead, iron maiden, and even snoop dogg.

Movies:

i'm not much of a movie person, but office space, spaceballs, shawshank redemption, and indiana jones are all time favorites.

Television:

MXC right you are, ken! up next is gaylord babaganoosh, world champion of rock paper scissors...

Books:

herman hesse, carlos castaneda, and jack kerouac for starters. cookbooks are good too. i don't have any, but i like them anyway. do you have any cookbooks that you no longer want?

Heroes:
